Lissa posted on the reeder rip thread.

Last time I saw them was at the long itch diner when they popped over in their mr2 to see us guys on a rideout.

Ashamed to say that I haven't.
Used to speak to them almost daily but since they stopped riding I haven't been in contact as much.
Last I heard was that they were doing fine. Pete was getting better but not enough to even contemplate riding motorcycles again. They seemed to having just as much fun driving their MR2 about.
I know Lissa occasionally checks in to see if we are all behaving ourselves but seldomly posts.
Love those guys to pieces...will have to pop round for a cuppa tea..if only to take to **** outta Pete.

They were great on the forum but if you never met them then you've missed out. Simply the best.
Was lucky enough to have them show me the sites around Wales for a day during AR10. Think I'll always remember that as one of the best times ever.

Spoke to Lissa a couple of months back. As far as I know they are fine. I know she lurks and keeps an eye on us especially events, and our bickering believe it or not :)

Well, I guess I'd better reply to this. ;)

We are both absolutely fine, and still enjoying life. Sad to report, but we've both become Gran Turismo addicts in the last few months, so spend a fair bit of time racing each other and other people. :oops:

Still enjoying the car as much as possible, given the truly pants weather so far this year, and got the Goodwood Festival of Speed and Pete's supercar driving day to look forward to in the near future, so keeping occupied. :D

We do still miss the bike, but more than that, we miss the people we used to meet and ride with. The car brigade are pretty damned hopeless when it comes to doing anything, and not a day goes by when we don't say 'do you remember this?' and 'do you remember that?' All of our best memories are tied up with bikes and the people we rode with, and we thank you all for those memories.

Any of you are always welcome to call in for a cuppa and a chat, if you are passing. :D
